The Lowdown
Alright, mate. Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for our local stretch. It’s been a bit of a slow start, but there’s a proper pulse coming through. Let’s break it down.
The first few days are a write-off. Thursday and Friday (the 23rd and 24th of July) are a total no-go. Tiny, weak, and messy with cross-shore wind. Don’t even bother waxing up. The combined energy is barely a whisper at 72 (Thursday morning) and 48 (Thursday afternoon), so it’s flat out junk.
We’ve got a bit of a gap on the front end, but it all changes on Saturday the 25th. The morning glass-off is the real deal. It’s clean, the swell bumps up to a consistent 5ft from the South, and the wind is glass – absolutely perfect. The combined energy jumps to 389, which is a solid, surfable pulse. The water temp is sitting at 22°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there. That morning window is the standout for the whole forecast. Saturday afternoon gets ruined by a t-storm risk and a gusty onshore wind, so you’re an early bird or nothing.
Sunday the 26th is another beauty. Again, glass conditions in the morning with a 3ft South swell, but the period stretches to a very long 14 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is a ripping 570. This is going to have some real push and long, clean lines. That afternoon holds clean too with a 4ft South swell. This is a top-tier weekend.
The good run keeps rolling into Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th. Monday morning is glassy again with a 3ft South swell (12-second period, energy at 330). Tuesday morning picks up a gentle offshore wind from the ENE, which is a major plus – clean, peeling faces at 3ft from the South.
After that, the energy backs off a bit toward the end of July and the start of August, but it’s not entirely dead. There are a few mornings with clean, small surf in the 2ft to 3ft range, but the consistency is lower. August 1st (Saturday) has a morning window with offshore wind and a 3ft South swell, and August 4th (Tuesday) looks like a sneaky good session with a 4ft South swell and clean conditions.
Overall, the standout is the Saturday morning (25th) and Sunday morning (26th). That’s your pick of the bunch – solid South swell, glassy winds, and proper energy. Get in the water.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
